Besides their stunning wooden design, Saunas are a fantastic way of detoxifying the whole body through the perspiration process, helping to remove waste from the body and skin. This can improve overall health by enhancing blood circulation which can reduce joint stiffness and may relieve other conditions caused by poor circulation. Saunas are know for relieving stress and tension, as well as, rejuvenating skin cells leaving you feeling relaxed and looking youthful and refreshed.

Off Grid Heat Haven For Entertaining
With plenty of space for eight adults, this Sauna is the ultimate place to connect with family and friends while enjoying an intense, rejuvenating sweat.
Sauna Anywhere You Want!
Our awesome wood burners have eliminated the need to have a high-amp line installed to operate the Sauna, meaning you can place it absolutely anywhere you like. This facilitates some amazing off-grid options like holiday homes, while also taking the hassle out of Sauna installation.
Crank Up The Heat Scandinavian Style
Our 20kW Wood Burners are incredibly powerful, capable of reaching temperature in excess of 100°C. Feel the difference as the blazing fire from a wood burner offers a drier, more intense heat.
Impurity Free Olivine Sauna Stones
One of the most enjoyable aspects of each Sauna session is pouring water over the hot rocks and feeling that revitalising steam envelop the space. This significantly increased stack of split-face Sauna stones provides more efficient steam output than regular rocks while their micropores guarantee a particularly soft steam is emitted to add a new level of comfort to the experience.
Feel the Intensity of Wood-Fired Heat
Our natural wood burners create an intense, immersive heat that surrounds you, offering an authentic sauna experience. The crackling fire and radiant warmth penetrate deeply, while the scents of the fire and heated cedar enhance the sensory escape.
The Off Grid Ultra Hot Sauna Experience
Our Wood Fired Hut Sauna offers an unparalleled experience. Enjoy a more unique type of heat and higher temperatures than traditional electric heaters, while basking in the warm, rustic ambiance of a crackling fire – all while saving significantly on your energy bills.
Ultimate Heat Experience
Our Hut Sauna is crafted from stunning FSC® Certified Rustic Cedar which means it can seamlessly enhance any outdoor area. Tucked away in your favorite backyard location or out on your garden deck in full display, this Sauna stands out as your ever-enticing gateway to rejuvenation.
Seats up to Eight
Designed for the backyard, or overlooking an enticing view, our Hut Sauna can comfortably seat up to eight people for a revitalising sweat session. You can have four people on either side of the bench seating, with an extra two seats outside, providing the perfect place to cool down in between stints.
Intelligent Hut Design
The unique shape of our Hut Sauna allows for even heat distribution due to its curved roof. This means that every seat is a prime location that offers abundant direct heat and fosters further connection as you all progress through the session at the same rate.
Ergonomic Back Support
We understand sitting upright in sweltering heat can quickly get uncomfortable. This led us to add ergonomic backrests to diversify the seating options within our Hut Sauna. Move your backrest to stretch out on the bench seats or lean it up against the back wall to look out through the window – the choices are endless.
Why Choose Cedar Over Other Materials
We strictly use FSC® Certified Rustic Cedar for our range of traditional Saunas due to their long list of appealing properties. Not only does our Cedar look better in your backyard, it carries a range of natural resistances and benefits that make your choice of timber an easy one.
A Natural Insulator
Cedar’s insulative properties significantly outweigh those of other materials which results in a Sauna that heats up faster and is more efficient in retaining heat. Spend less time topping up your wood burner and more time relaxing.
Which Wood Lasts Longer?
Cedar is naturally resistant to moisture, rot, and decay, making it perfect for saunas. Unlike other timbers that absorb moisture and warp, cedar maintains its integrity. Its natural oils also have antimicrobial properties, helping prevent decay and deter pests. These qualities make cedar the ideal choice for an outdoor sauna that will withstand the elements for years.
The Cedar Experience
The natural scent of warmed wood can be an enticing feature for Sauna users. Cedar offers a distinctive and pleasant aroma which many Sauna enthusiasts appreciate, while other materials such as pine often release a resin type odor when heated. Our cedar also contributes to natural air purification due to Cedar’s inherent antimicrobial properties.
Safe, Efficient, And Built To Last
Experience the perfect blend of efficiency and durability with our premium wood burner. Designed for reliable performance, it features a safety flue guard for peace of mind and a tempered glass door for lasting strength and style.
A Durable & Efficient Wood Burner
Our engineers have designed a wood burner that delivers a more efficient burn, ensuring heat is distributed more evenly than other options on the market. This new wood burner design features 2.5mm steel which has been vigorously tested to ensure it’s incredibly durable and designed to last.
Flue Safeguard
We’ve taken every step possible to minimise the risk of burn from the flue which carries smoke outside your Wood Fired Sauna. The flue is constructed with dense steel, allowing for a double-wall design that effectively traps heat working alongside a robust steel SafeGuard providing a protective no-touch barrier.
Tempered Glass Door
With tempered glass, you can be sure that your door won’t shatter or break in high temperatures, or when you’re opening and closing it.

Frequently asked questions
ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HUT SAUNA
Traditional saunas use a stove to heat the air. As the temperature of the air increases around you, the temperature of your body increases as well due to absorption by heat convection. This causes your body to start the cooling process by transporting blood closer to the surface of the skin and opening pores through sweating.
Infrared saunas also heat the surrounding air but to a lesser degree. Instead, infrared saunas use infrared heaters to emit a specific wavelength of infrared light. Your skin absorbs this wavelength, causing your body’s temperature to rise. This elicits the same effects as a traditional sauna with less overall heat needed.
Yes, we provide comprehensive manuals alongside several videos to explain how to assemble the Sauna in a step-by-step basis. However, we do advise organising the help of a builder or expert handyman, as this Sauna assembly can be a big job for casual DIYers.
One of the main differences between a traditional sauna and an infrared sauna is the heat involved while inside the unit.
Traditional dry saunas average temperature is 60 to 80 degrees Celsius, with some models reaching as high as 90 degrees Celsius.
Infrared saunas use a much milder temperature environment of between 45 to 65 degrees Celsius. However, because the heat of infrared saunas travels much deeper into the body, they can cause a more vigorous sweat at lower temperature.
Another difference between a traditional sauna and an infrared sauna is the amount of power required to operate each unit.
Traditional saunas require more overall power to run. Our traditional saunas have either a 6kw heater (Barrel) or a 9kw heater (Hut). Our infrared saunas have either a 1.5kw heater (Oslo) or a 2.4kw heater (Copenhagen).
This means that a traditional sauna is more expensive to run than an infrared sauna. This can make a difference, depending on how often you use the unit.
